Rockin' Robin
Blow, rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight
Inspired by Bobby Day's classic 1958 hit, Rock Block's spring 2016 tournament is a double-round-robin tournament. Each player will play each other player twice, once as a challenger and once as a defender, with no possibility of draws. Whoever has the most wins at the end will be declared the winner and receive a prize! This tournament will be played live on Saturday, February 27 at 2pm ET.
For more information about Rock Block, see How to Play.

Rules
Live Play: The entire tournament will be played within 1-3 hours. Players are invited to join a video conference to talk to each other during play, but participation in the video conference is optional.
Concerts: "Rockin' Robin" concerts will be started by Scott using randomized terms. Each player will "challenge" each other player a single time, thus resulting in two concerts between each pair of opponents. The Overtime play rule will ensure no draws, but the other play rules and the artists in each concert will be randomly selected based on what each pair of players has available to them. These concerts will use the None trade rule, and will time out after 15 minutes. These concerts will not result in ranks of new artists in the Collection Guide, as participation in the tournament already does so (see Prizes below), but they will count towards achievements such as "win fifty concerts."
Scoreboard: As the tournament progresses, the outcomes of concerts will gradually fill the scoreboard, indicating who won each concert. Click on the status of any concert in order to visit that concert.
Victory and Tiebreaking: After all concerts have completed, players will be ranked according to how many victories they achieved in these concerts, with the winner being the player with the most victories. Any ties will go to whoever won against more individual opponents, or failing that, to whoever won more of the head-to-head matches against each other. If a tie still cannot be resolved in this manner, then a single randomized concert will determine the ranking of tied players.
Joining and Leaving: Players are invited to sign up on Funeratic until the start of the tournament. Anyone is welcome, but a Funeratic account is required to play. At least five players must have registered by one hour before the start of the tournament, or it will be canceled.
Prizes
The champion will receive a $50 Amazon gift card by email and a small trophy.
The champion will also receive 50 ranks of new artists in the Collection Guide. The second-place player will receive 40 ranks of new artists, the third-place player will receive 30 ranks, the fourth-place player will receive 20 ranks, and all other participating players will receive 10 ranks. If multiple players tied for second, third, or fourth place, they'll each receive the ranks at that level.
Every participating player will also unlock the Overtime play rule, and receive a free copy of Bobby Day in their label.
A "participating player" is defined as playing at least one turn in a "Rockin' Robin" concert.
